As a music GCSE student, I found out about this book via my teacher at school. She showed it me and said it wouls help me out in my work. i looked at it and it is a brilliant book which is a must for a GCSE music student or anyone interested in music. It contains lots of really good information on things like cadences, process music and other things which a student needs to know about the history of music. If you like to know a lot of knowledge about music then this is the book to get. It has everything.

This series of books has been around for quite some time, but I have yet to see another that sums up the many different aspects of music theory and practice any better. Invaluable for any music student.
